Agreed. Luevano has improved and has underrated toughness, but definitely the weakest link at 126 and because of styles, I can see Gamboa beating...
Bingo. That sums it up. :bears: Add to that technique - how well you transfer weight, follow through on punches, turn your wrist/forearm over...
I had Taylor-Spinks a draw. He was losing the rematch to Judah when he was TKO'd. And he was very fortunate the Pineda bout was stopped the...
Sakata, Naito, Pong, Narvaez, Vazquez, Kameda, Viloria....there's plenty to do at 112 if Nonito really wants to (and the other fighters agree to,...
Wow....didn't see the fight. That bad, huh?
1. Yes. Harris came in over-trained (to my eyes) and absolutely fought the worst fight imaginable. Even his corner was screaming this at him from...
True enough. :lol:
:lol:
Sure...like I said in my first post, if nothing else that is more compelling comes up in the next few days Kessler & Palle absolutely deserve all...
That has been my point for a while. People forget that Gomez is used to taking punches from guys at jr. middleweight and even over that limit....
Ludicrous fight which should not happen.
Agreed on all counts.
As I said before, my guess is Team Palle has been in negotiations but likely something finally materialized or they were given an offer/scenario...
Agreed. Thompson is a legit opponent/contender and has earned his shot. Peace.
A great list; similar to quite a few of mine... But where, oh WHERE, are Ike Quartey and Danny Willliams? :nono:
I'd bet on Gomez having a great chance to beat Peter. Washed up or not.
How so? Peter has slightly improved, if that. Who he is in the ring with matters when gauging his improvement....and Toney II is NOT the fight...
You think Edison can beat Bute?
Oh my God, Gatti...you owe it to yourself to get more Sanchez fights. I listed him as well...one of my absolute faves, great technician and...
Take it to SmackTalk, all of you. If it's here in GD, keep it clean & civil. Thanks.
That was my first thought...he's pretty much the #1 ranked contender in every belt that he and Calzaghe fought for - and Joe will likely vacate....
Will Cuban Hawk EVER be optimistic? No. :lol: But you DO have a point.
He's got Virchis as his mandatory, correct? After that, it's Juan Carlos Gomez. Not sure about Virchis as I haven't seen him much.....but if I...
Not at all. Of course, you have to have the physical talent and tools to beat Tyson - no one is saying you can beat him by "not being...
Wallau was excellent. You really think Merchant was that bad early on? I always thought he was pretty on point. Sure, he's got more "character"...
That's what my gut said as well upon reading the news. At the very least he could defend vs. Garay then rematch Mundine. It's a loss for us -...
Best points of the whole thread.
Absolutely. And though I don't think it wins, Casa-Katsidis is a definite contender. Given the right circumstances ANY fighter with any style...
Good catch....I don't. John is good - and can be quite 'negative' - and I was one of the very few saying that would be a tough fight for...
Yup - this is a tough one; as around '88 Hill was arguably at his best....and for all of his performances at 175 lbs.; Hopkins IS advanced in age....
